Djokovic vs Federer - champion ship Point - Wimbledon 2015 final
This is the moment Novak Djokovic became a three-time ‪#‎Wimbledon‬ champion.
Down the years there has been no shortage of enthralling battles to decide the destination of the Wimbledon Gentlemen’s Singles Championship, but nothing in recent memory could match the cascade of brilliance produced by the defending champion Novak Djokovic and, to only a slightly lesser extent, Roger Federer as they duelled for the most treasured prize in the sport.
Djokovic won it by 7-6 (1), 6-7 (10), 6-4, 6-3, needing only four sets this time against the opponent he had defeated in five sets a year ago, but this was a victory which flew in the face of the support of the Centre Court audience. Djokovic is respected as the world No.1 and the man who was defending this crown, but he was not accorded the adoration lavished on Federer, the seven-time winner of this title.
So there was much for the 28-year-old Serb to overcome, and it was much to his credit that he did so with such skill and determination, particularly after dropping the second set tie-break after missing seven set points. The roar which greeted Federer’s levelling of the match must surely have bounced back off the Alps of his Swiss homeland.
But with a short break for rain thrown in to add to the drama, Djokovic took control of the last two sets to claim his third Wimbledon crown before repeating his celebratory gesture of kneeling to kiss the turf, pluck a blade of grass and chew on it.
